Northern China is regularly subjected to intense wintertime "haze events", with high levels of fine particles that threaten millions inhabitants. While sulfate a known major component these haze particles, its formation mechanism remains unclear especially under highly polluted conditions, state-of-the-art air quality models unable reproduce or predict field observations. These conditions are generally characterized by simultaneous emissions SO2 and photosensitizing materials. In this study,...
Photocatalytic paints based on titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles represent a promising treatment technology for cleaning the air at our dwellings. A few studies have shown that instead of elimination harmful indoor pollutants production carbonyl compounds occurs from photocatalytic paints. Herein, we report unexpectedly high concentrations volatile organic (VOCs) released upon irradiation which are meant to clean The VOCs were measured continuously and online by PTR-ToF-MS (Proton...
Abstract. Hyphenated laser ablation–mass spectrometry instruments have been recognized as useful analytical tools for the detection and chemical characterization of aerosol particles. Here we describe performances a ablation particle time-of-flight mass spectrometer (LAAP-ToF-MS) which was designed aerodynamic sizing using two 405 nm scattering lasers composition single via ablation/ionization by 193 excimer in bipolar with resolving power m/Δm > 600.We laboratory based optimization...
Abstract We investigated the photosensitizing properties of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formed during hydroxyl radical (OH) initiated oxidation naphthalene. This SOA was injected into an flow tube and exposed to UV radiation gaseous volatile compounds or sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ). The particles were observed grow in size by photosensitized uptake d‐limonene β‐pinene. In presence SO , a production (0.2–0.3 µg m −3 h −1 ) sulfate at all relative humidity (RH) levels. Some also on dark,...
Heterogeneous reaction of gas phase NO2 with atmospheric humic-like substances (HULIS) is potentially an important source volatile organic compounds (VOCs) including nitrogen (N)-containing compounds, a class brown carbon emerging importance. However, the role ubiquitous water-soluble aerosol components in this multiphase chemistry, namely nitrate and iron ions, remains largely unexplored. Here, we used secondary electrospray ionization ultrahigh-resolution mass spectrometry for real-time...
The photosensitized chemistry of three aromatic ketones (xanthone, flavone, and acetophenone) also secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) arising from the photo-oxidation naphthalene was investigated by means transient absorption spectroscopy.
Our laboratory experiments reveal a decrease in light backscattering by reactive uptake of isoprene epoxydiols on sulfate aerosol compared with inorganic sulfate, which can aid quantifying the direct forcing organic/inorganic sulfates.
